I'm looking forward to the days when we have good user management for Wireguard. It's so hard to scale it across just my family right now.
- blacksmith_tb 7y agoAlgo (mentioned above) will generate a bunch of profiles for you (including QR codes to configure mobile devices without needing to type awkward strings), which works pretty well for me - at least with a family you won't need to add or revoke identities very often I'd hope...
- ficklepickle 7y agoMy family shuns a member every other week. If you can't access the family VPN anymore, that is your notice.
- L_Rahman 7y agoI'm using Algo right now and it's perfect if I plan to maintain the same server consistently. The problem is that we're constantly traveling around and latency suffers when trying to connect to a box in DO's NYC3 from Vietnam. It's a huge hassle to take that box down, spin up a new instance in Singapore, distribute profiles and authenticate. This is neither Algo nor Wireguard's fault. I just wish we had some more tooling to make it easier to move between instances.
- d00bianista 7y agoLike a good Unix tool, that's outside of WG's scope. User management is done with the likes of LDAP and such.
- L_Rahman 7y agoI completely agree that it should never be part of Wireguard itself. Mostly looking forward to the project and tooling ecosystem that develops around it.
